The Wolf Parable Her books, Inspiring Generosity and Inspiring Courage The power of putting ourselves in the way of inspiration How we're different at the end of a book than at the beginning Reframing how we look at generosity How generosity flows from a sense of abundance How a sense of abundance flows from being generous That generosity and courage are action verbs The fact that you should feel a pinch when you act generously That saying the loving-kindness meditation can be generous What it means to lead a courageous life How no one who was courageous seems to claim courage The spontaneity of courage How authenticity seems to coincide with courage That you see a pattern of courage throughout people's lives Post-traumatic growth How a strong childhood isn't necessary in order to lead a full life The role of listening in generosity and courage How important listening is in all of life The correlation between generosity and courage Practicing generosity and courage and growing the ability to act on these qualities over time How to live a life of meaning you have to step forward "Do something every day that doesn't compute" - Wendell Berry Please Support The Show with a Donation See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
